First names I love from this list -

Clara
Mae
Gloria
Alice
Ruby
Ginger
Toby - I love Toby for a girl, of course Toby wasn't her real name. I had to look her up out of curiosity but a lot of names aren't these ladies "real" names.
Lauren
Vivian
Ava
Jane
Lena
Veronica
Hedy - I LOVE this name.
Viveca
Marilyn
Marie - so very underused as a first name.
Lana
Pier
Brigitte - but I prefer the Bridget or Brigid spelling.
Mara
Cleo - the only Cleo I know is a man in his 70's or 80's
Olivia
Brooke
Linnea

Louise isn't one of my favorite names but Louise Brooks is one of my favorite girls from this list. Eloise Brooks would make a pretty name.
